VMWare running ridiculously slow (hexbear.net)

I'm in a class that requires I use VMWare virtual machines, however it's running very slow. I had a meeting with my professor to try and trouble shoot why but we both can't seem to find a reason.

I got plenty of ram, I shut down a few programs that seemed to be causing my computer to run slow and made sure the VMs were in my actual drive not the cloud but is still very sluggish.

What are these virtual machines running? You might be missing some software package or library on your client machines so look into that.

The one I'm using right now is just a Windows 10 environment with some cybersecurity software on it
